Hi Alene, we do not offer direct medial advice. Everyone’s situation is unique and has its own set of complexities. You could share the article with your doctors and perhaps come up with a tailored plan for you.

I have been constipated since my childhood. I took Citrucel for years, and it kept me somewhat regular. I am on the reintroduction phase of the fodmap diet. Everything is more difficult for me to swallow now. I have a bulbar form of A.L.S. which is speech and swallowing. Mine comes from my primary lateral sclerosis, a rare disease, so it will not kill me in 2 years. Food has never helped me with my constipation. I have 2 neurologists, and I can ask one of them what they think. They know my limitations. Miralax has helped when I had to have colonoscopies. I tried it recently and it is very hard for me to swallow. What do you think would be the best for me?
